Transfer: Man City will lose important players – Wenger

Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has opined that Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola needs at least three new signings this summer despite winning the treble.

Guardiola’s side became the first English team since Manchester United in the 1998–99 season to win the treble.

The Citizens won the Premier League title over Arsenal, beat Man United in the FA Cup final, and got past Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League final on June 10.

“I must say, I was thinking as well at the celebrations: What do you do now at City? Do you go for a new challenge? Motivate yourself for a new challenge. Or do you stay, take advantage of the credit, and continue to develop this team? They will lose maybe important players,” Wenger told Mirror.

“This team is not an old team, but there are no young players. Apart from [Erling] Haaland, who is 22 now, all the others are between 24 and 32 years old. So two or three new players will need to change. They have to find the same quality again.”
